sullen dreary skies

hope's distant fleeting thunder

echoes of my heart

And I'm glad you still hear the echo but I don't think your heart is an empty chamber by any means!

Not everyone knows how to read
senryu and haiku and may miss

THIS...is the form, personified.
Well done, Sir!

I've been taken by surprise a few times, usually when I most expected it.

But tomorrow the sun is out and the birds sing and the echo of a heart changes form. Isn't that wonderful?
